Delighted that we are funding a second study with @NIAS999 expanding on this research and focusing further on the chain of survival. We can’t wait to hear about the results in future and see how both studies makes a real difference to outcomes of cardiac arrest patients in NI!

Hearing from Stephen who survived a cardiac arrest and how his wife & fast access to all parts of the chain of survival saved his life. Very moving. Stephen & Margaret are now volunteer community first responders @NIAS. @nichstweet @QUBelfast

Margaret & Stephen share their incredible story about Stephen’s cardiac arrest and their passion for now volunteering as Community First Responders helping others survive cardiac arrest. Behind every cardiac arrest stat is a real story which is why this research matters so much
